As soon as I try to open my Intel hd gma 4000 control panel through the hidden icon tray by clicking on graphic properties it opens and almost immediately closes with a message saying: "GfxUI has stopped working"

I have an Asus a55a with an i3-3110m and 4 gb of ram running win7 64bits. thanks in advance!
 
Solution


I found out another solution after doing some research, see if it works for you:

1. Open Control Panel|Click 'Uninstall a Program' (Programs and Features)

2. Look for Microsoft .Net Framework in the list and Uninstall them all (restarting the computer each time it tells you to)

3...

try doing as i say:
start->type in search "Turn Windows features on or off"->enter-> (A dialog box appears on screen with title Windows Features) find a option of "Microsoft .Net Framework"-> check that box if it is unchecked
you are done then :)

Hi! The .net framework 3.1 wasn't unchecked but filled and it said that it meant that it had partial features enabled. For it to have the check I had to enable two sub-features called "windows communication foundation HTTP activation" and the other one was "non HTTP" but still the issue persist :(. Should I leave it checked? or return it as it was? Thanks for the quick suggestion though.

try updating your .net framework version, intel chipset drivers.
leave those 2 options unmarked. Just let me know if it helps.

Hi again! It seems my net framework is already up to date: 4.5.1. In the add/remove programs I verified it, but I don't know why in windows features it displays 3.1 (?).

I unchecked the HTTP activation and the other one as you said.

While my Intel drivers seem to be up to date with the manufacturer, the generic ones on the Intel site are more recent. So, did you meant the drivers from Asus intended for my laptop or use the recent generic ones?

3. Once they are all gone, open the Uninstall a Program (Programs and Features) again and click Turn Windows features on or off on the bar on the left

4. You'd get another window on and you need to uncheck Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5.1 from the list and click OK

5. Proceed with it complete uninstall and restart the computer (when it tells you to)

6. Open the 'Uninstall a Program' (Programs and Features) again and now look for Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable and uninstall all these as well.

7. Restart the computer and open the Uninstall a Program (Programs and Features) again and click Turn Windows features on or off on the bar on the left and place a check on Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5.1 (it would be a blue square and not a check) and install it again

8. Finally, download & install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package from Microsoft's website

I'll get to it as soon as I get home. Just a quick question about the downloads. When you said "place a check on Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5.1 (...)and install it again" you meant the 4.5.1 that was the one installed or the 3.5.1?

i mean 3.5.1 because that is what it will showing you in "Windows Features". Hope it works for you :D
good luck!!!
